What sold me on flowglad was the single source of truth and not having to hold customer stripe info in my DB. Although it took me a little while to figure that out lol

  Six minutes after this story was posted on HN you made this HN account to post this. So when you say it took you a little while to figure out... by little while you mean less than six minutes?

    I appreciate your concern and can understand your suspicion of when my account was made and when this post was posted. I am in their discord, because I have used their product for about 6 months now, and they mentioned hackernews, and I was curious because I have never heard of it. Now does that mean my comment about how the product has helped me in my projects is now not valid? Have a great day, and either try it or dont, but no need to try and bring me down for supporting a company that has made my job easier.

      Okay, fair enough. It just looked like a sockpuppet account, but okay, I believe you you're real. Sorry. FWIW your claim here is false: "Everything you have commented on this post has been negative". I don't think this comment of mine was negative: "the landing page is one of the most beautifully designed things I have seen in a long time". Also note that when someone criticized the level of fees, I responded to that comment by saying that the fees were "standard" (as opposed to high). So just to set the record straight, not "everything" I commented here was negative.

I care about my own developer experience. If i can save a headache and some time integrating payments, I'm all for it.

This is a needed abstraction! Love the idea of bringing a reactive DX to payments. I'm keen to know: Is Flowglad the source of truth for feature/credit state, and how do you achieve low latency for real-time feature gating?
